Built for low-pressure air, water, and oil service, the Coxreels SHL-N-160 Spring Rewind Hose Reel gives maintenance teams a compact way to store and manage customer-supplied hose in shops, service bays, plant maintenance areas, and mobile equipment setups. This SH Series reel is configured less hose and is sized for 1/4" I.D. hose with up to 60 ft hose capacity and a 300 PSI maximum pressure rating, making it useful where hose type, material, or end fittings need to be selected separately for the application. The SHL-N-160 uses Coxreels’ Super Hub™ dual axle support system, which adds support at the center shaft to improve reel stability during payout and rewind. The spring rewind mechanism retracts hose after use, while the multi-position lock ratchet allows the operator to hold the hose at the working length needed for the task. Because this model is supplied without hose, it is a practical choice for buyers who already have approved hose on hand or need to match the reel with a specific air, water, or oil hose specification.

FAQs:
- Q: What does “less hose” mean on the Coxreels SHL-N-160?
A: It means the reel is supplied without hose installed. The buyer must provide compatible hose separately, staying within the listed 1/4" I.D., 1/2" maximum O.D., 60 ft capacity, and 300 PSI pressure rating. - Q: What media can this reel be used with?
A: The SHL-N-160 is listed for low-pressure air, water, and oil service when used with compatible hose, fittings, and system components. Always verify hose material and fluid compatibility before installation. - Q: Can this reel be used for shop air?
A: Yes, when the selected hose and fittings match the shop air system’s pressure, flow, and connection requirements. The reel itself is rated for up to 300 PSI. - Q: Can the SHL-N-160 be mounted on a wall or service truck?
A: Yes. The adjustable guide arm supports wall, floor, vehicle, and overhead mounting positions, provided the reel is securely mounted to a suitable structure. - Q: How is SHL-N-160 different from SH-N-160?
A: SHL-N-160 is the less-hose version and does not include hose. SH-N-160 is the corresponding hose-included version in the same SH Series size configuration.
